Tbe first record of tbe manufacture of paper banginga iu England dates from the year 1092, as a patent was taken out at that date by a William Bayley, who stated that his inven tion consisted of "several engines made of brass," for tbe printing of all aorta of paper, of all sorts of figures and colors whatsoever, and that "tbe said invention had not been here tofore known or practiced by any of onr subjects." There ie no doobt the first attempts were tbe imitation of tapestry, linen or other hangings that were at that time faahiouabte. In the reign of Queen Anne, 1712, a duty was imposed on jasper hangings They were made on pieces, 1C to 24 sheets, forming about 8 square yards; each sheet boro tho govern ment stamp; the duty was ljd. per Bquarc yard.

Tbe first of tbe modem colors was Mr. Perkin's aniline mauve, which wee discovered and applied in the year ISiKi (August); it was two or three years after (April, 1859) that the next modern color, magenta or fnchsine, made ite appear ance; the tide rose slowly, in 18(i0 with purples, blues, and riolete, gained every year in force and voluino. uutil the flood has now risen.to such a height that one who would like to keep up with it stands astonished and dismayed at ite extent end well nigh confounded with the prospect la-fore him. Nor ie there any sign that we have got to high-water mark, for mouth, after month chemists and color manufacturers are patenting new colors or new processes iu such numbers that only a specialist of specialists can pretend to follow or appre ciate the work that is being done. Car painting by compressed air is being tried on. the Pittsburg aril l,ske Erie railroad, says the Engineering Ncirs. The yard is welt supplied with sir pipes,and the barrel placed on a band truck ao that it can be moved to any part of the yard. Tbe air line consists of 100 feet of one-iuch heavy hoee; the pniut auction hose of 50 feet of $-incb heavy hose. - Tbe barrel ie equipped with a float of pine wood with 4-incb hole in the centre.

This road is also using a device for spraying on paint for the lettering, for covering uniformly, aud is con sidered a decided improvement over the stencil brushes, aud will leadto a great saving in the wear and tear of stencil plates. "Trade follows tbe flag," but it was a mighty poor trade that followed the flag into the Philppinee. The American government paid 8201000,000 for the arobipelago, and it has already cost 845,000,000 additional to put the purchase in working shape. A few more trade* of this character will cause the American business man to wear clothing like Sena* tor Henna'a, revenue stamps taking the plaoeof dollar-marks. No one thoroughly acquainted with the Cremona var nishes ever mistakes the real Cremona for its infinite imita tions, none of which has ever reached such a degree of iden tity with tbe original as to delude a real cognoscente. For nearly a hundred and fifty years, ainoe the traces of the real Cremona varnish disappeared, every effort to reproduce it exactly has failed. Charles Resde, the novelist whose diver sion aud adoration were the study of old violins,--many of which were finished in tbe Cremona varnieh,--bears testi mony to this fact in these words: "More than once, even in my time hopes have ran high, but only to fall again. Some have cried 'Eureka!' to the public, but the moment others looked at their discovery and compared it with the reel thing, `inextinguishable laughter shook the akies.' At last despair has soeceeded to all that energetic study, and the varnish of Cremona is sullenly given up as a lost art" Times.aud tbe Paint Trade.--"In conversation with a Toronto paint and oil jobber, I gleaned some facta, or rather, one fact, which rather surprised me," aaya a Canadian trade writer. "He told me that his experience had sot always been that the years of 'good times' were tbe best for tha paint trade. One year particularly, when very many honaes in To ronto were vacant because of `dull times' in the city, the paint trade was exceptionally brisk, as competition among landlords led a great many of them to keep their houses in good repair. Of course, in seasons of 'dull times* persons owning property are, as a. rule, satisfied with leas improvement tbao when they are reaping a share of the benefits accruing from 'good times.' These facta being true, tbe far-seeing paint dealer will in tbe present era of 'good times' endeavor to reach those moat likely to improve--the men owning the bouses they live in. This trade is largely reached indirectly, or through the painter, bat the prediction ia a safe one that a steady, determined 'pash' in the sale of paints would result in increased buaineaa from tbia quarter. It ia advisable not to use chrome greens on new walla as there is danger of their being turned in color by the presence of the caustic lime in the wall. The steady glare of gaelight, too, baa been known to have a yellowing effect npon these colors. Capitalists who are deterred from immediately embark ing iu the manufacture of acetylene for illuminating purpose* by the statement that it will cost 810 instead of 7c per thou sand feet may barn of something to their advantage by communicating with E. McFarlan Moore, an electrician of Harrison, N. J., who expects, it is said, ia selUaticka of light that will remain illumined for forty-eight hours and will out shine rays of sunlight. Mr. Moore thinks be has discovered a new principle in molecular vibration which will revolution ise the science of illumination. These light aticka operate on the button principle ao that if a man wishes to aee what time it ia in the dark or find the keyhole of his domicile at a late hourin thenight,instead ofstriking a match, which ie liable to be blown ont by the next gust of wind, he will simply press tbe button referred to ymd the light stick will do the rest. If Mr. Moore can really make these light aticka at a reason able price he will confer a lasting benefit on hia race but he moat remember that there ia a limit to the amount the average man can afford to pay even for the privelege of pressing a botton and getting a sunbeam. Renewed experiments at Spezzia, Italy, with petroleum as fuel for warships have resulted in confirming the good opin ion hitherto formed by naval engineers in regard to the prac ticability of this agent as a substitute for coal in generating steam. The veeeels selected for the trials were the San Martine and the Staffeta. As on the former trial, it was shown that with petroleum a high speed ia obtainable; though before the new fuel can be used to advantage certain siteration* must be made in the machinery of the vessel* It is highly probable that the re*u1t of the experiments will be the adop tion of petroleum as the sole fuel of the Italian navy.

It is a good enough method for use in matching colon of pre vious shipment, as long aa exactly the same proportions end quality of material haa been used, but to match a day standard or a paint mixed in a shop or the paint of another maker requires quite a different method. The only sure method is tbe painting of tbe sample against tha color under way of grinding under exactly equal conditions and awaiting the drying thereof. This is what tbe practical painters do, be they maeler painter* of railroad shops, deooratora. or carriage painters.

What it the volatile part of benzine diaapiieara in drying, (in a good benzine to my mind, TOOK IinOTHEIliS, Importers aai Ifasafactarm if there is no paraffine wax or other non-volatile substance, at least I base never been able to discover enyl, the benzine has done its duty, that of FINE DRY COLORS, making the paiot spaead so uniformly, and drying the coat of paint all the way through, preventing further saponification, aod tbe binder retnsioa at ail events and prevents tbe peeling off. A master car painter Oleum WUItc, Tocli'a Wlilte Base, Drop Blarkx, Lukes, Etc. of 35 years' experience has told the writer, that be would much rather 468, 470 & 472 Went Broadway, New York. use benzine in bis quick drying ooach colors than fatty turpentine', and for house psinting he would much rather use benzioo then turpentine, tiecausr benzine would totally evaporate and leave no resinous subetaaoe behind it. as is the case with turpentine. The painters or manufacturers nae benzine only for this sake of gain, t d<> not Imlieve, but, of course, it is used to a great extent an a cheap- ener, by which, however, tbs consumer is benefited, because there are many men who will pay for h purely benzine paint as much as thay would for a pure linseed oil (mint, when benzine ia so sssily detected. Benzine cuts a large figure and is a boom for many industries in the point line, such w shade cloth painting, agricultural implement, paint- ing, etc-, and if is not the manufacturer who reaps the benefit alone, bnt the consumer n well, becuura com]>etition prevents the maker from reaping tbe harvest and therefore tho argument of Messrs Dudley and {'case that benzine is a good tiling for tho {mint manufacturer, but a bail tiling for the consumer, come, to naught.

They may make mistakes, for 'lis human to err; bat let not their mighty task under the guidance of Truth and Right be weighted by carping criticism, fsult-finding and bitter invective. The duty of the patriot at home is to extend sympathy, encouragement and material aid to the patriot in the field, the congressional chamber, and the executive office. Our cause ie just, the conflict unavoidable, and our duty plain. The command of today it: "Close up the lines; Forward march!" and the nation ie at the service of the constituted authorities of onr government. Whatever sacrifice is required will be cheerfully msde by the descendants of Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln and Grant If it be in treasure, the boundless resources of the greatest country on the globe are available; if it be in men, the nstion'e sons are ready to offer tbeir-lives in defense of the flag. Old Glory, long may ahe proclaim the doctrine of liberty, equality and self-government! And by that token the stars and stripes and the infantile bannerol liberty--the bonny flag with a single star--will float over Morro castle and through out Cuba ere the white-winged dove of peace again spreads her wings over a peace-loving but just sod patriotic people. All wars have their commercial side. After Spain acknowledges her mistake and retires from the field the world wilt undoubtedly witneesa remarkable revival of international trade in Culm Hint the l'hillippiue Islands. Of course the United States will be io a position to successfully influence the condition of such a trade revival and will reap great id *. lei ini benefits. The United States need not worry over the ' probability of interfeieuce by great powers. Without Eug. iand, cinicer!cil action on the part vt Europe is impossible and England will never consent--she proposes to cultivate as never before the gUut nation of the new world as the best:" means of cons -i ving her own interest*. The Painter aa a Dealer. The following communication appeared in a recent num ber of Painting and Decorating, being the views of Mr. Arthur 8. Barbier, a well-known master painter: The meny discussions that have been held by master painters on the seemingly burning question: the right of the painter* for recognition by the manufacturers, as the proper persons to sell painters' goods to the public, by this means bringing the painter properly into the j>oeition he ought to occupy, a position that through force of circumstances he doea not generally occupy to-day; and because this position is oc cupied by the grocer, hardware dealer and apothecary, the master painter is handicapped in his business and shorn of legitimate profits, would it not be well to consider the situa tion, pro and con, ao that both painters and manufacturers can understand their relative positions better and solier thought develop ideas that will in time restore to the trade a financial benefit that once belonged to it, and really ought to be in its possession to-day. There are many things to be taken into consideration by the painter, as to the conditions surrounding the manufac turers, and what they have to do in order to place their goods on the market. While the manufacturer has l<cen a large factor io bringing about the condition complained of, yet the painter, by hie apathy towards the subject the past twenty years, bee very materially aided in bringing himself to the condition of being a very unimportant factor iu the eyes of many manufacturers. To explain what I mean by my last statement; is the painter awarA that to-day more goods in the way of paints are sold by manufacturers to persons who are not painters than to the painters themselves? It is a fact, that very few painters realize, hot if you doubt my statement, master painters, inquire for yourselves. We invite your Inquiry and order for irson SAIT.

If tbe sample to be examioed is in the form of a mixed paint it will be advantageous to free tbe pigment from tbe mixing fluid. This may be done in several ways When nothing but tbe composition of tbe pigment is desired tbe simplest method is to take about 25 grams of tbe sample, pre viously thoroughly stirred, snd pour in s smell beaker of sbout 160 C. C. cspscity. This is then filled with ordinary gasoline, naphtha or petroleum-ether and then allowed to stand until tbe liquid ie clear. Pour off tbe dear liquid and add more gasoline or solvent. Generally three or fosr appli cations will be found sufficient to free the pigment from all oil and most of the dryer, tbe latter being disregarded. The gasoline or solvent is then entirely evaporated from the pig ment by heating in an air oven at a temperature of 100 C. uotil tbe remaining solvent, is entirely evaporated. It is then rubbed up in an agate or porcelain mortar and passed through a fine seive. The sample is then ready for analysis. When it is necessary to be extremely accurate in getting the percentage of mixing fluid and pigment it will be found best to exhaust the sample in a Soihlet extractor using petro leum ether or ordinary sulphuric ether as a solvent A con venient size of Soxhlet extractor ie one inch in diameter and F.W.Devoe&G.T.Raynolds Co.

Ga., have been io au excited state owiog to the possibility of tronhle between naval stores factors, who are very seriously at outs with each other. A press dispatch from (be hie; naval stores center slate* that Messrs. Cheetnntt and O'Neil, naval stores operator* are arrayed on one Bide, WhileH. ft. Garnett, of Garnett, f>. C., with bis friend, John R. Young, of Ellie, Young A Co. naval etoree producers, aud Mill B. Lane, vice-president oi the Citizens' bank, are on the other. The tatter gentlemen are acting as Mr. Garnett'* friends, and it is said are trying to bring about an amicable settlement of impeodiog difficul ties. The differences between Messrs. Cbestnutt and O'Neil and Mr. Garnett grew out of the effort to form a naval stores trust in Savannah. Cbestnutt and O'Neil refused to go into the plan, and in an interview gave out fbe contract they were expected to sign. Mr. Garnett looked upon tbie act as a breach of con fidence, and with the two friends named called on Mr. Cliettnutt at his residence and demanded u retraction of some state ments made in bis interview. The retraction was denied them. Mr. O'Neil, io an interview published by a local paper next day, said: "It has been iutimated to me that certain parties may cal) at my office with a cowhide to make Mr. Cbestnntt and myself retract I want to put anyone with auy such idea in his head on dotica that if they step into m; office with such an idea, they will bs shot to death. I will kill them if it is the last act of my life.'' Savannah and tributary towns are on the <joi viva over this matter. There is much speculation as to the final ont- i come. A Drummer'* Bill.

The Spring Paint Trade. There is a diversity of opinion among looal paint grind ers respecting the results so far experienced relating to 1899 business, but there ia an unanimous opinion in regard to the outlook for spring business, which they all affirm to be nt- ntually bright. { When the National Lead aud Oil* Company of New Jer- sey, metaphorically threw down the gnaotlet of competition in the shape of a public announcement that thereafter that company, and the corrodera composing it, were prepared te supply dealers direct with tinting colors for making aay desired shade of white lead shown on their color card, many grinders felt that the coming year would be one of severe competition in the sale of mixed paint. Others, recalling the necessity which brought the mixed paint business into exist ence- the convenience of reedy-mixed colors--argued that the new departure of the corrodera was more for the purpose of supplying consumers such as artisans who bad the skill and preferred to mix their own colon, and that the unskilled consumer would most likely continue to prefer the ready- mixed article. All griaders, however, agreed in their antici pation of greater competition this year, and they were not slow in preparing for it A Tour of the Sontti. The departure this week for the South of a body of Chi cago gentlemea may be said to be fairly representative of the North, ae a friendly visit of business men wbo are en gaged on a pleasant junket Looked atio another light, how ever, it assumes an aspect farmore serious, and it is a movement which may be fraught with far-reaohiog consequences to both sections. Afters visit to the Cotton States Exposition at Atlanta, the party will accept the invitations of the mayors of Savannah, Augusta andotber cities. In these cities the men of the North will meet the representative business men of the South and the result can not but be beneficial in the stimulus which must necessarily be imparted as a result of this meeting. It seems to us that this junket, combining both business and pleasure, will lack completeness unless the oil, paint and drag interests of Chicago and the Northwest are represented. There are surely enough delegates from these important and widely extended industries to be found to fill at least one car,, and unite with their brother adventurers in their expedition into the region known as the "New South." A hearty welcome doubtless awaits all tboae willing to avail themselves of the cordial invitation extended by these Southern communities, and as a mere advertisement of Northern commodities and as affording an opportunity to foetsr new markets, the auggee- tion is worthy of consideration.

' It waa a generoaa appreciation of faithful service, with which the long-eatabliehed bouse of Heath <fc Milligan began the New Year. The presentation of a liberal sum of money to their employee waa a practical exhibition of the generous impulses of the courteous members of the firm, but the pro mulgation of a notice by them that henceforth all employes remaining in the service of the house for fifteen years will share in the profits of the business, was a new departure which conld only be borne of a spirit of generosity far in advance of ordinary business usages, reflecting tbe highest credit upon a house which, thus unsought, and without need of such a course of action, having always lieen open banded to their wage-earners, liberally acknowledges the fidelity of old employes by the gift to each of an interest in the profitB of the firm, as those employes may assist in tho realization of such profits. This sort of recognition of faithful service cannot fail to endear tbe members of the house to tiie recip ients of this bounty, at tiie same time furnishing au incentive' to alt employes to give tbcir l>est service, kuowing that, hav ing fulfilled the proper probationary period, they will them selves enter into tbe same privileges and realize a reasonable portion of their past labor, reaping as they have sown. There are but few firms in the country, comparatively . sinking, who have inaugurated this broad-minded policy to ward employes, the firm of Heath & Milligan being the first, wo believe, to introduce it into tbe paint manufacturing busi- ness. Photography of Colors. In the laet number of the MonHcur tic la Photographic, referring to tbe eo remarkable reproduction of a spectrum obtained by the Messrs. Lumieie, by tic method of M. Lippmann, we said that everything was endangered by the admis sion of the least trace of white light, as this would daTkeu the entire intervening screen and consequently suppress it. We asked ourselves how it would be possible to prevent tbie injur ious intervention. In tbe course of our experiments on poly chrome projections with the aid of three lanterns,*we con ceived tbe idea that if the polychrome image obtained on the screen were projected in a camera on a sensitive plate arranged as is that of M. LippmaoD, we would obtain in this manner a polychrome image formed of composite colored radiations, without being hindered in tbe experiment by white refloated light. In fact, the luminous rays of the three lanterns are filtered through three prints, which are veritable sieves with unequal meshes; moreover, they pass through three mediums of different colors, which suppress all the white light except that pertaining to that perl of the local image where should be produced the effects of the whites. In these conditions the experiment may be attempt, il. and we do not sea why, if the sensitive film' [h ik s c s s c .s tie- suitable qualities of translucenee, we might not arrive at the desired arrangement of an inter vening screen, giving exactly the mixed vibrations and the re spective length of wnves suitable for communicating to oar c.vc the colors corresponding to the original. These sensa tions, in a word, would Is- lire.I need by a vibration analogous to those resulting from the direction of the natural colors on our visual organ. We may be told that the method would be very indirect, since it would be necessary to first obtain three negatives of a subject in different conditions; afterward projeet the three positives from these negatives, in three distuiot lanterns, through lights of three different colors, on a senaitive plate to be developed and fixed in the ordinary manner. We will answer that we must first reach tho goal, even if we have to do so indirectly; if we reach it, we will find a method afterward to shorten the road, and to attain more direotly the final end.--Leon Vidal, in Mouiteur de la Pholographie. The Knorinoii* Sums l`Hi<l for Commercial Travelers. '`The money used iu a single year to foot the salary and expense bills of the traveling salesmen of the United States would pay off the entire natioual debt and leave a fewdollers over." This rather startling statement was made by a junior member of One of tho large dry goods houses of this city, who haa a force of about fifty travelers under his immediate charge. As a proof of his assertion he presented these particulars: "There is hadly a wholesale, jobbing or commission house in any line of business in the United States that does not have at least a traveling representative, and from one lone man the traveling force ranges up as high as 125 or In') men, end there may be one or two houses with even more. The average of the most reliable estimates place tbe total unrulier of com mercial touriste in this country at 250/JO; and, miudyou, this does not mean peddlers, but only those who sell goods at wholesale. "The railroad fares, charges for carrying sample baggage by freight or express, hotel bills and namerous incidental traveling expenses of these men will range between $4 and >12 per day, but some meu will spend f25 in a single day for these purposes without resorting to auy extravagance. Take for instance, some of the carpet, clothing or fancy goods men wlio-carry ten to fifteen trunks full of samples, take a packer with them and hire a hotel parlor to display their goods whenever they open their trunks. But the nuptber of these meu is comparatively small, and $<i a day will fairly represent the average expenses of the 250,000 men. There you bsve >1,500,000 per day for expenses alone. Multiply this by 005, ami you have >517,500,000 as the amount expended in oue year. "The item of salaries is nearly as large. Few men are paid less than >900 per year. The largest number receive Iwtween >1,500 and $2,500, either in salaries or commissions. A lesser number are paid from $3.000to >5,000-- those receiv ing the latter amount being comparatively few. But there are traveling salesmen who are always in demand ac >10,000 to >15,<XK) a year; but they are few aiid far between. The lower salaried predominate, as might he supposed, and an average of >1.800 per year is not far out of the way. Figuring 250,000 men at an average >1,800 per year gives a total of >450,000.000, according to my arithmetic. To this add >547,500,000 for expenses, and you hove >'.'97,500,000 for these two items.

The need of a more liberal education in the chemistry of ' pigments, oils, etc., end their combination into finished pro What becomes of the oil in paints when the latter dries? is s question tbst is frequently asked, and answered by the expert rather infrequently. ducts for the manifold purposes to which various descriptions It may be observed that oils exposed to the air absorb of goods ere put in the consuming paint and - oil trades, has oxygen freely, and those containing lineolic acid, known as attracted some attention, and the claims urged by Mr. F. H. Palmer, of Cleveland, are worthy of careful consideration. He rightly maintains that educated employees meaue greater efficiency and larger results, that a scientific knowledge of the paint business would tend to an improvement in the grades of goods offered the consuming public, aud effect a betterment of trade conditions from the standpoint of both manufacturer end consumer. The paint trade has its fetiches--its supersti tions and dogmas--and the stimulation of independent in vestigation on the part of the men who work in the factories, in salesrooms and "on the road," will do much toward eliminating a blind adherence to views that are challenged by progressive and nnconventional thinkers and students of the trade. Results should attest the merits or deiuerila of goods. It should be continually borne in mind that industrial history is largely a record of innovations, and no product ie so perfectly suited to the demands made upon it that it is not in danger of competition with something as good or displace drying oils, of which liuseed nit is the type, "thereby harden - into a solid translucent semi-elastic body, a property of the - greatest value in the arts." When oil paint is used tbs paint after a short time becomes what is called painters' "dry;" that is, tbe coating wilt no longer lake an impression from tbs finger. But the change is not due to the evaporation of any volatile liquid, but to the absorption of oxygen from tbe air. This is easily proved. If three boards are punted with white lead paint, and one of them be placed in a vessel containing oxygen, the second in a vessel containing air, and the third ie left in the open air, tbe first will "dry" three times faster than either of the others. Thus a quick drying paint is on# that absorbs oxygen from the air rapidly. Paint "dries" more quickly at a high temperature than at a low one; that is, oxidation pr-iceeds more quickly at 82 degrees Fabronneit than at 60 degrees Fahrenheit, and this is why painters vary tbs amount of ''drying oil" which they add to their paint according to the season ofthe year. ment by something better--tbe outcome of research, experi ment and a broader knowledge of paint chemistry.

Q If you are looking for low priced paint--clivap stuff--wo are out of it. If you are will ing to judge paints by results, we want to go into the matter with you. Long ago we made up our minds we would on\y make oue grade of paiut - a really good paint. We do not waut to do all the business. We believe there ie a trade for a cheap paint ae well as for a firstclass article. As far as we are enurerued, however, wo will only make the good staff. We do not believe nuy one can do full justice to both. Anyway we thiuk it reasonable that by giving our entire thought and attention to making only good paint, we have a better chance of success than if we tried to make three t\ or fonr cheap grade#. Besides, we have a weakness for making good goods. We like it. It is our ambiiiou to make the beat paint. vfy t h e Sh l r w ih .Wil l ia ms Co .
